Last week we gave you a recipe for air fried green beans and today we come back with another fun and very easy way to use your air fryer: fried pickles!
That’s right, you can “fry” the pickles for a crunchy, salty breakfast in just a few minutes. This special fried pickle recipe avoids suspicious fried oil and batter in favor of bread made with primal-friendly ingredients. Make a batch of these, get out of trivial pursuits and host an at-home pub quiz with gluten-free beer or these beginner mocktails for avoiders.
In a small bowl, mix together the tapioca starch and spices. In another bowl add half of this mixture along with the almond flour. In a third bowl, whisk together the eggs.
Dry the pickle well with a towel to remove excess moisture. Spray your air fryer basket with avocado oil.
Toss the pickles in a mixture of tapioca starch. Use a fork at a time. Dip each pickle into the beaten egg, then dredge the piece into the almond flour mixture. Put the pickled bread in the basket.
Repeat with the rest of the ritual. Spray the top of the pickle lightly with avocado oil spray.
Set the basket in an air fryer at 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius) for about 10 minutes or until golden brown outside. If needed, air fry for another 1 to 2 minutes to get a nice golden brown exterior. Allow them to cool slightly before removing them from the basket.
Serve with your favorite Primal Kitchen Dip and spices!
Advice
Each air fryer is different and therefore cooked a little differently. Read your manual for details.
Use delicious vinegar-based pickles for this recipe. Avoid sugary pickles in brine as it will negatively affect their overall taste.
